Having a hard time Mood
Thursday, October 23, 2008 | A General Update story
Its funny cos 99% of the time i'm the most positive person and am really happy with my life, but every now and then i had a hard time dealing with Josh's Autism and it takes all my effort not to cry. At swimming tonight I found myself comparing him to the other autistic kids and wishing he could talk like one of them or behave like the other. Unfortunately we can't pick and choose, we have to play the cards we're dealt. I'm not sure what more i can do, i'm close to a lot of the other parents and their children are doing the same therapies as what we are.
